Ford intimates that if this mistake is rectihed

the long feathers presented, even to

A Case of Deafness Cured.
OFFICE OF SHAW & BALDwIN's !
WHOLESALE NOTION House,
TOLEDO, O., Dec. IL, 1879.

r.. j. Cheney 6 Co., Toledo, Ohio Dear
YSirS-About three months ago, noticing a
letter addressed to you in the Bee from Gen
eral Slevin, in reference to the cure of his
son by the use of HALLS CATARRH CURE,
we were induced to commence the use of it
for our daughter Nellie, now fourteen years
old who has been suffering from catarrh
for about eight years, during which time
she has been treated by one of the best
physicians in the city. We have also tried
the use of almost all the known remedies
for catarrh, with no more success than
laid awake to hold her mouth open TO keep
her from stranglng. Her hearing, had also
become affected. We were afraid that she
six bottles of HALLS CATARRH CURE, and
we believe Nellie to be entirely cured. In
a few days after commencing the use of it
we noticed decided change for the better,
and from that right along she has improved,
until now she breathes as easily as any one.
She sleeps well and her hearing is perfectly
good. We feel that the disease is entirely
removed. We write this unsolicited letter
feeling that it is due you, and with the hope
that others may be benefited in like manner.
We can hardly realize that such change
could be effected in so short time after
battling with the disease so long. We are
still using the remedy at intervals, as 1t
seems to build up her system. You are at
liberty to use this in any manner you see
proper. We are yours truly,

An August Tribunal.

EVERYTHING about the supreme court
is impressive and awe-inspiring. Even
the two trim negro men who sit at the
inner and outer doors and noiselessly
open them by means of a cord attached
to the door-knobs, to allow persons to
pass in and out, apparently perform
that duty with deep sense of their re-
sponsibility. The semi-circular cham
Der, with its stately columns of notified
Potomac marble, its half-domed roof
lighted by skylights, its substantial,
old-fashioned furniture, and the rich
upholstery of the sofas arranged upon
the sides for the accommodation of
spectators, recall historic scenes, glori-
fled as they are viewed through the
dim mist of time, and its walls seem
ready to echo the voices of the past.
The appearance and bearing of the
nine elderly gentlemen who sit in a
row upon a raised platform behind
a long desk, clothed in their black silk
robes; the absolute silence enjoined
upon all not having to address the
court, and the subdued monotones in
which the business is transacted, make
one feel that here at least are grav-
ity and attention BETTING the dignity

Starving a Jury.

Jurymen are better off in these times
than in the good old days when it was
the law to endeavor to starve them into
verdict. 1t is bad enough now to be
put to loss of time and money, with lit
tie or inadequate recompense, without
being starved or fined into the bargain.
In the early part of the reign of Henry
VIII. Lord Chief-iu Reed tried an
action when on circuit in which the
jury were locked up, but before giving
their verdict had eaten and drank,
which they all confessed. This being
reported to the judge, he fined them
each heavily and took their verdict.
In Hilary term, Sixth Henry VIII,
the case came up before the full court
of queens bench, on joint motion to
set aside the verdict on the ground of
informally of trial, the jury having
eaten when they should have tasted,
and next remit the fines under the
peculiar circumstances of the case.
The jury averred that they had made
up their minds in the case before they
ate, and had returned into court with
a verdict, but, finding the lord chief
justice had "run out to see a fray"
and not knowing when he might come
back, they had refreshment. The
court confirmed both the verdict and
the fines. In "Dyer's Reports a case
is reported of a jury who retired to
consider their verdict. and when they
came back the bailiff informed the
judge that some of them (Which he
could not depose) had been feeding
while locked up. Both bailiff and jury
were sworn, and the pockets of the lat
ter were examined, when it appeared
that they all had about them pippins,"
of which "some of them confessed
they had eaten, and the others said
they had not" All were severely
reprimanded, and those who had eaten
were fined twelve shillings each and
those who had not eaten were fined six
shillings each, " for that they had them
in their pockets. '-AU the Year Round.
